In response to a request for guidance on DHSC’s ‘Termination for Convenience and in the wider context of FOM at previous National Procurement Forum’s, we have been requested to ‘sign post’ to all HCSA members the guidance and updated NHS Terms and Conditions and specifically the guidance on supporting the Future Operating Model.

The two important links to view are;

  1. A guide for recent changes to NHS Standard T&C’s published January 2018
  2. Guidance on how to support the Future Operating Model which includes specific guidance on termination for convenience as added to Schedule 1

The web page below takes you to the DHSC’s page that includes a more comprehensive list of terms and conditions and includes, the supporting FOM guidance as well as other related information.
